Thank you! Compassion and Expression Art for Peace

Thank you so much to everyone that was able to attend, volunteer and support Be the Cause’s Compassion and Expression: Art for Peace event.

The entire day was beautiful, starting with decorating the Chucoâ€™s Justice Center. With quotes on the walls and words such as “love” dangling from the ceiling, we were able to transform the empty warehouse into a lovely space of inspiration.

This event was spurred by a passion to serve and connect with the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. It came together because of passionate people like you that were dedicated to making a difference. Speakers, artists, volunteers and supporters from various spaces came together to connect, express and love with unity.

Our event showcased international relief organizations International Red Cross, KinderUSA, Islamic Relief, Catholic Relief Services and Manav Sadhna’s One Global Family Project.Â Over a thousand dollars was received from donations and t-shirt sales; these will be awarded to the charities. Participants used art to express and were connected to families in Gaza. Many cards were created to send overseas, buttons made to speak out on issues, and poetry written collectively to share emotions. Letters were also created for politicians, and a collective painting was created and donated to the Chucoâ€™s Justice Center.
